Len was a brother/sister duo from Toronto. When they got the budget to make this video, they used it all to fly their friends down to Daytona Beach and film over a wild weekend.

[@JohnKamer]

You are exactly right, and it was during Spring Break in March of 1999...about 3 months before Hurricane Floyd passed by and took out 1/3 of the end of the Daytona Beach pier shown in the video.

Correct! I Lived in Daytona when they Filmed this and a couple of my Friends were in some of the scenes!

Talk about a blast from the past. I remember jamming to this when I first started driving. You should check out one week by the bare naked ladies or fly by sugar ray. Love the 90s❤❤❤

This song is 100% pure pop sensibility. It's downright irresistible.

[@chapagabriel1203]

It's Summer 1999 I'm 14 years old watching TRL and Life was so much simpler back then. This song is just straight good time Vibes.

[@hpacheco]

This songs instantly transports me to the 90s and it wasn’t even a song I really listened to back then.

[@mikaelschaefer7720]

The song is about the lead singer going to a electronic rave he was still feeling the effects as he sang the song why his voice sounds like that they were from Canada also I love at the beginning he make that this laugh as he looks up at the sky you can tell he was still tripping

[@warlockkarl]

the lyrics are not the important part of this song it's the vibe. One hit wonder, great spring season song from back in the day.

This song definitely grows on you very fast. I remember being iffy on whether I liked it or not when I first heard it, but the more I heard it, the more I loved it. It's now one of my top three one hit wonders of all time.

I was lying on the grass on Sunday morning of last week Indulging in my self-defeat My mind was thugged all laced and bugged all twisted wrong and beat Uncomfortable in three feet deep Now the fuzzy stare from not being there on a confusing morning week Impaired my tribal lunar-speak And of course you can't become if you only say what you would have done So I missed a million miles of fun I know it's up for me If you steal my sunshine Making sure I'm not in too deep If you steal my sunshine Keeping versed and on my feet If you steal my sunshine I was frying on the bench slide in the park across the street L-a-t-e-r that week My sticky paws were in to making straws out of big fat slurpy treats An incredible eight foot heap Now the funny glare to pay a gleaming tare in a staring under heat Involved an under usual feat And I'm not only among but I invite who I want to come So I missed a million miles of fun I know it's up for me If you steal my sunshine Making sure I'm not in too deep If you steal my sunshine Keeping versed and on my feet If you steal my sunshine I know its done for me If you steal my sunshine Not something hard to see If you steal my sunshine Keeping dumb and built to beat If you steal my sunshine My Sunshine If you Steal my sunshine My Sunshine If you Steal my sunshine My Sunshine If you steal my sunshine My Sunshine My Sunshine If you Steal my sunshine My Sunshine If you Steal my sunshine My Sunshine If you steal my sunshine My Sunshine

New Radicals: "You Get What You Give" (1998). Bit of a one-hit wonder, but very catchy and sad and happy.

Don’t think it’s very sad at all. Apart from reminding me how old I am now.

[@nayf7682]

Nah, its not that it was a one hit wonder that whole album was pretty good! The just broke up after the first album as the frontman decided he didn't want to be a "famous pop star" so he decided to go into production instead

I was 15 years old when this came out! This was one of those "Summer Jams" especially during the summer of 99 when that song came out! The song did catch my mom's attention when I was listening to it for the first time because of the sample from the Andrea True Connection song "More, More, More"

[@ghostley8155]

This brings me to a easier time when this was always playing on the radio

[@Italiag1]

This was a dj album of a brother and sister. One song on the album even has Biz Markie RIP. This was the only top 20 song on the album but the whole album has great beats and is a banger.

[@leogothisoscar271]

This CD was one of the first 2 CDs I ever bought (cassettes before that, of course). It's weird not hearing the whole "To the beat y'all, rock rock" part at the end that leads into the 2nd song. One of the best songs on that album that is worth listening to is Junebug.

[@GoWestYoungMan]

It's 100% 'Bubble Gum Pop' (fun and not meant to be taken too seriously) and got huge airplay when it came out. I believe the 2 lead singers are brother and sister.

[@CaddyJim]

This is another brother sister Duo Was a big radio hit

[@jcsongs819]

Len sampled a disco song by a 70s porno star for this song. The song is More, More, More by Andrea True Connection. You'll hear it at about the 2:30 mark in her song. You should do her next. Good songs, both.

[@IFHorus]

Why not, everyone else did her.

[@TheBlindGuitarSlinger]

This was there more commercial hit, but on that same album, can’t stop the bum rush, there is a song called Man of the year, and that was a huge club banger where I am from in the early 2000s. Real talk. Huge. You should definitely check that one out.

It's a good time party song with friends, and you're looking for deeper hidden meanings? Some songs are just fun songs.

[@meyers7]

One of my favorite videos. Helps make the song. You're right it does sound like they have been partying all night. Because they did. They spend $100,000 on the video and most of it on alcohol. They took a bunch of friends down to FL and would film in the afternoon, because they were mostly hung over from drinking the night before.

[@supersyked1]

Still listen to this religiously. It's #14 off my top 25 most listened to songs.

[@MarkTitus420]

What they did here is take a 70's pop song called More More More by Andrea True Connection, they took a sample of the middle solo in the song and they turned that sample into the hook.

[@jeknechtphotography7106]

Dang, I keep forgetting about this song. It's such a good time summer song

[@ffjsb]

The main beat is a sample of Andrea True Connection's "More, More, More". She was a pornstar turned singer. Not much talent, but the song was catchy and made her, like Len, a One Hit Wonder...

[@chriswiedeman2956]

They actually swapped the bridge and the verse(s) with the original.

[@lobobungy8710]

i think this may be classified in the "Shoe Gazing" genre within Alt-Rock, very popular in the mid-to-late 90s.

[@jolschki]

No, this is not shoe gazing at all. Shoe Gazing is My Bloody Valentine, Curve, Lush, etc. Definitely not Len!
